36 CRAZYFISTS is evidence that there's a beauty in isolation, a newfound purpose from even the worst of tragedies, and that heavy metal and hard rock music doesn't have to be all doom and gloom to have power. Now an integral part of the ever-expanding Ferret Music family, 36 CRAZYFISTS recorded The Tide And Its Takers with guitarist Steve Holt at the helm and the legendary Andy Sneap at the mixing boards, which turned even more heads than before. New songs such as "We Gave It Hell" delivered the promise to further expand and develop their sound. The band's patented twists and turns, which already earned them favor amongst fans of bands like THURSDAY and THRICE ensure that none of it sounds contrived, copied or otherwise rehashed from other bands. Explains vocalist Brock Lindow, "On the DVD is a collection of a ton of footage over the 15 years of the band s career as well as our hometown show in Anchorage in January of this year. It helps to document the career of our little band. There's interviews from band members sharing their thoughts on the band's career and all the wonderful things we have been able to experience because of this band. Our fans have been waiting for something like this to surface for sometime and for that I'm very grateful to Todd Bell, AKSOUL, and Ferret for giving us the opportunity to finally put out our very first DVD." From the band's beginnings in 1994, they set out to create honest music that draws from many places without sounding like any other band in particular. After their original bass player died in a tragic automobile accident, the band relocated to Portland, Oregon and continued on, ever more determined to make their music heard. The guys in Bay Area metal band SKINLAB alerted the A&R department at Roadrunner Records to 36 CRAZYFISTS, who released their first album, Bitterness The Star, in 2002. A Snow Capped Romance followed two years later, supported on tours with Killswitch Engage (whose early releases were issued by Ferret) and POISON THE WELL (who are now on Ferret). 2006's Rest Inside the Flames delivered tenfold on the promise of the first two albums, showcasing Lindow's impressive range alongside the skillful and fluid playing of Holt, drummer Thomas Noonan, and bass player Mick Whitney. Throngs of fans across the UK, Europe and North America have embraced the band, who will spend the summer of 2008 on the European circuit playing festivals such as Download and Graspop before returning to the US to take part in the inaugural Rockstar Mayhem Tour with SLIPKNOT and DISTURBED.
